Company History
American Family Insurance has a remarkable history that started with a single idea. A struggling insurance salesman named Herman Wittwer dreamed of success selling auto insurance to Wisconsin farmers. Herman understood that farmers presented lower risks compared to city drivers because they drove less often and put their cars up on blocks for the winter.
Armed with this customer knowledge, Herman confidently opened the doors of Farmers Mutual Automobile Insurance Company on Oct. 3, 1927.
Over the years, our market grew from rural areas to small towns, suburbs and metropolitan areas. We stayed ahead of the curve by expanding our products and services to meet our customers' changing needs.
Our company's name changed in 1963 to American Family Mutual Insurance Company to reflect a broader customer base.
American Family Insurance offers auto, home, life*, umbrella, business, health, and farm & ranch insurance, as well retirement* products. Through the years, we've expanded geographically, too. Currently, we operate in 19 states spanning from Washington to Georgia.
Our customer relationships have helped us build a strong and stable company with more than $5 billion in policyholder equity. As a mutual company, our customers and owners are one and the same. Our success is measured not only by the rate of return for shareholders, but also by the value we provide our policyholders.
We have been in business for more than 80 years, and we aren't stopping there. We remain committed to being the most trusted and valued service-driven insurance company.
